Agee with Jared, quoted below:
" It favors the machine over the human, and does so by burdening human
authors. "

Which nimrod turned accessibility around to now make machines happy, rather
than the people who use machines? Is this why we're all here?

Flip around the focus: we should figure out how to make content work better
for people, and then program the machines to provide the content in the way
it's needed.

Accessibility is for people, not for machines.
